This study reported the determination of the lipid profile of the brain of the male free-roaming domestic dog (Canis lupus var. familiaris) edible portion on dry weight basis. Parameters determined were total crude fat, sterols and phospholipid levels. Calculated from the main results were total fatty acid, total energy (both in kJ and kcal); fatty acid in edible portion (EP); some fatty acid quality parameters such as MUFA/SFA, PUFA/SFA, EPA/DHA...
